From Dec 3, 2012
KA-CHOW!!! It's December and time for lots of great activities for the family to do this month. My family was invited up to California Adventure and Disneyland to check out the Holiday decorations. We headed over to the new Cars Land and were not disappointed! The decorations were amazing! As you can see in the above collage, there were "Cars" themed Christmas trees throughout Cars Land, and also some wonderful holiday decorations throughout California Adventure and Disneyland. We rode the "Radiator Springs" ride and had the best time.
I just have to share a few pics from the day, then I'll share some great events and activities going on this month.

Cars Land was a blast, but so was the rest of California Adventure. My husband rode Screaming California, the whole family enjoyed our never-to-be-missed ride on Soaring Over San Diego, uh, I mean Soaring over California and we even took a picture with Mickey and Minnie! Fun Times.
